Practicing spear technique is essentially a combination of body, mind, and weapon; the weapon is an external object, not the body's original intent, so it is harder to practice; but a weapon can exert terrifying combat power that transcends the body's strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Third, when practicing the spear to a bottleneck, one can try to transform the fist into the spear!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Historically, the 'Xingyi Fist' in traditional martial arts evolved from spear techniques,\" Li Yuan thought to himself: \"Integrating the application of strength and technique changes from spear techniques into unarmed fist techniques truly achieves the transformation of the spear into the fist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the current era, the stance training and breathing techniques in cultivation methods coordinate with each other, making physical training efficiency far exceed that of the ancients; the entire human civilization has embarked on the path of life evolution, breaking through life limits time and again, eventually emerging with martial artists capable of flying and escaping; but the fundamental principles of martial arts skills remain unchanged,\" Li Yuan reviewed the past: \"The 'Rock Fist Technique' and the Xingyi Fist in traditional martial arts have the same purpose, and can also be transformed into spear techniques.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the direction Li Yuan chose after receiving guidance from teacher Xu Bo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also one of the reasons why Li Yuan studied the \"Rock Fist Technique\" so crazily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fist, spear, and movement techniques are never independent of each other, but mutually promoting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the second-year final exam, Li Yuan failed to break through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, during the holidays, he didn't relax at all and had been pondering crazily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by the further improvement of his mental power, finally, in the half-month before school started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan used basic spear techniques as a cornerstone, combined with the core mysteries of the \"Rock Fist Technique\", and created his first true spear technique ultimate move—Rock Foundation Pillar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This move was Li Yuan's fusion of the \"Establishing the Foundation\" and \"Standing Firm as a Pillar\" moves from the Rock Fist Technique into a spear technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was the \"Rock Cultivation Method\" or the \"Rock Fist Technique\", both prioritized the foundation and strength rising from the earth, and were the strongest in defense among the seven basic cultivation methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This spear technique was also a defensive spear style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creating \"Rock Foundation Pillar\" allowed Li Yuan's spear technique realm to break through from stage two 99% to stage three in one fell swoop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the test at the beginning of the school year, when sparring with teacher Xu Bo, it was also because he had this ultimate move that Li Yuan was able to hold on for more than ten moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A defensive spear style can only save one's life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Want to kill the enemy? Must attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, for the past two months, Li Yuan had been pondering how to create an attacking move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Rock Fist Technique excels at defense, so it's easy to create a defensive ultimate move, but it's hard to create an attacking ultimate move.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The seven basic cultivation methods include seven fist techniques; like the \"Blazing Flame Fist Technique\" and \"True Gold Fist Technique\", both excel at attacking and make it easier to create attacking ultimate moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the repeated practice of fist and spear techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the realm of skill became higher, Li Yuan finally understood it thoroughly after drawing on the concept of the 'Horse-Turning Spear'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Horse-Turning Spear is about showing the enemy weakness, feigning defeat and running away, then suddenly turning back to counterattack; this is mounted spear technique,\" Li Yuan thought to himself: \"My Rock Spear Technique excels at defense; no matter the strength operation, footwork movement, or the hand shape for holding the spear, it will instinctively tend toward defense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, once I take the initiative to attack, it's easy for the enemy to see through the reality during the spear style transformation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only defensive counterattacks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Use defense to replace attack, defend until the enemy is careless, defend until the enemy is tired after a fierce attack, then suddenly strike, killing with one move,\" Li Yuan’s eyes held a glimmer of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on this concept, Li Yuan finally created the killing move \"Dragon Hidden in Rock Ravine\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the individual guidance from teacher Xu during martial arts class over the past half-month,\" Li Yuan pondered: \"Stage one and stage two are the foundation of skill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recent classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teacher Xu Bo would give Li Yuan individual guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The stage three realm is about the combination of body, mind, and weapon, striving to exert physical strength 100%,\" Li Yuan thought to himself: \"The spear and fist techniques I perform instinctively usually can't exert 100%.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only when I find an opportunity to perform an ultimate move can I do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moves that can exert 100% of physical strength can be called ultimate moves or killing moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan had only created two ultimate moves so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next, if I can create more ultimate moves,\" Li Yuan gradually clarified his future ideas: \"And one day, I can exert my strength perfectly with any punch or spear thrust without wasting a single bit of power, then my martial arts skill can break through to the stage four realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In teacher Xu Bo's explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called 'stage four realm' also has another name—Unity of Person and Weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also known as 'Unity of Body, Mind, and Weapon'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In ancient times, if one's skill reached the stage four level, they would barely be qualified to be called a 'Spear Master' or 'Fist Master'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unity of Person and Weapon? A bit far,\" Li Yuan shook his head slightly: \"One step at a time, better to continue pondering more ultimate moves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each ultimate move is essentially a specific way of exerting strength that has reached perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more ultimate moves created, the more perfect the overall way of exerting strength becomes, and eventually, one will naturally step into the stage four realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoosh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Swish!\" Li Yuan continued to practice his spear technique, further familiarizing himself with the \"Dragon Hidden in Rock Ravine\" move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The day after tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The day after tomorrow is a holiday, I'll have enough time, so I'll work hard to get my points up to 500 on the gold tier,\" Li Yuan made up his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't wait for the scholarship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, if he wanted to reduce the economic pressure on his family, he had to find a way himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan had been eyeing the 50,000-coin prize of the Starry Sky Fighting Network for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Office building, first floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teacher Xu Bo's office was incredibly spacious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This kid, he's progressing really fast,\" Xu Bo, who looked like an iron tower, was wearing a martial arts uniform and standing in the center of the martial arts room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large amount of light gathered, forming a light screen about two meters high and two and a half meters wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light screen displayed the martial arts classroom of Class 2, third year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the enlarged image showed the scene of Li Yuan practicing the spear and performing \"Dragon Hidden in Rock Ravine\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's also really able to keep his cool; he hasn't come to ask me for so long, his temperament is steady enough,\" Xu Bo had a playful smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the head teacher and a special-grade teacher at the school, he had high authorization at the school and could access class surveillance at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, since the day he saw Li Yuan coming to school at four-something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had focused on Li Yuan and retrieved a large amount of previous surveillance records.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This check surprised even Xu Bo, who had seen many big scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He discovered that Li Yuan arrived at school at three-something every day, and had been doing so for a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never stopping once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Determination, perseverance, he's a good seedling,\" Xu Bo thought to himself: \"Moreover, my previous guess was right; his family background is average, yet he can withstand such crazy training?
